From the desk of the Game Manager: This Thursday (November 11th) we will be conducting server maintenance between 8:00PM-10:00PM pacific time (GMT -8). This will be back end database / update which will cause the campaign to be offline. The training server will likely be not accessible as well. CRS will provide text updates through the official discord (join here). Thank you for your continued support.

As announced at our most recent Rat Chat, the time has come for all WWII Online players to rise to the occasion and ensure that the game will continue to be player-driven. In accordance with that goal, we are planning to issue all premium players with the maximum player rank of Lt. Colonel a special subscription enabling the in-game High Command toolset. This will inject many veteran players and squads directly into the strategic component of WWII Online after many years and ensure we have players with operational tools online during all time zones. We also have plans to add Squad AOs. Please continue reading to fully understand how this came to be and the implementation plan.

Today I am pleased to announce that CRS has provided Free Play subscription access to ALL veterans of WWII Online, and you may play the game immediately! Anyone who has ever had a premium subscription has received a Free Play sub added to their primary account, meaning all players of WWII Online will now be able to play - always - with Free Play (limited) access. This is a bold move for us but we believe it's not only a great way to keep players connected, but we think it's the right thing to do during this unprecedented time in our world's history to give all of our players the opportunity to play the game and disconnect from stress. We see this as a perpetual "welcome back soldier" while still maintaining the value of our subscriptions. Please continue reading for more information.
"Locked" access on your account pages is normal and good, it means it won't expire.

CRS is currently looking for some additional volunteers to help contribute to the success of WWII Online. If you've ever been interested in how you could make a difference and improve WWII Online, we have a range of options available for you to consider. Some of our best people have joined our team directly from the community, in fact, over 90% of our current team were players first. These opportunities range from Programming (C++ primarily), Production (3D Art / Animation / Data / Flight Modeling), Community Management, Marketing / Business Strategy, Systems Administration, and much more. Take a look at all available opportunities and connect with Cornered Rat Software (here).

At my direction, our team at CRS has restored perpetual Free Play to WWII Online, effective immediately. I'd like to go into detail as to the available access Free Players will receive, discuss the big picture of Free Players and how they will be integral to the WWII Online experience, and share some insights and reflections that I have had reviewing recent decision making. If you've created a Free Play account now - or in the past, it should now be active and available for you to play. Continue reading for the details on this significant announcement.
